Clifford or MacEachern as the 13th forward
Sundqvist on IR
Replace Neal with Sundqvist when he's healthy and that is a real deep forward group
Bubble team IMO

Neal at league minimum is a decent signing, as long as no one puts him in any sort of leadership role. He's a weiner but still a good player

Neal is not a good player at all. On the ice he’s a liability. Off the ice he’s worse.

Truly desperate, James Neal puts in the effort to get the contract.

He will be getting scratched by December

Neal is one of my least favourite active NHL players.

I don’t care if I get sin binned for it, I have to say this: James Neal can go pound sand.

No chance that he scores more regular season goals than he has in pre-season.

Whatever that means

He still couldn't out perform Jagr who still can bring it and Jagr isn't a cancer in the locker room.

That's okay.....this will be the first coach in Berube that Neal should be afraid of .

I hope Craig knocks him the F out once his disruptive cancer plagues the blues locker room .

Neal, who joined the Blues in training camp as a professional tryout, led the team in goals (4) in five preseason appearances.
Sounds impressive until you realize that he had a hat trick in the Blues' first preseason game against a Wild roster that barely had enough NHL veterans to be eligible.

Yeah I dunno where that dude got his numbers from. First of all, 4.5k? $4,500? The person who manages your season tickets probably makes that every month.

Even they meant to say 4.5m instead of k... it's still wrong. The Oilers are paying Lucic and Neal $2,666,667 ($2.67m) to not play for them.
